I was on vacation on the East Coast (I live in Southern California) and hit up every beer bar and brewery I could find while out there for a few days. One of the two best hoppy beers that I had during my stay was Kane Head High IPA (the other was a Hill Farmstead Double IPA). I was blown away by how tropical and aromatic it was. It was very clean, dry and aromatic...a true quaffer.

I reached out to the brewer and he gave me the recipe. I find it interesting that the base malt is all Pilsner. I'm also surprised at the hops being used because they seem so typical for a west coast style IPA. Head High had a more tropical fruit and floral (but more like s tropical flower if that makes sense) aspect to it than the citrus/pine one would expect from the hops stated in the recipe (maybe it's the yeast/hop interaction?).

He didn't provide OG/FG, but the beer is 6.5%, so that's easy to play around with in your brewing software. He also mentioned that they whirlpool for 45 minutes, so you may need to tweak hop additions based on that information and your personal setup/process.
